Scandalous lovebirds T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach took their romance podcast on the road — or the streets of New York City rather.
The former “GMA 3” anchors hosted their first live “Amy & T.J.” podcast at Soho House on Thursday night, where they had a fireside chat-like appearance in front of their fans.
A source who attended the conversation told it felt like they were missing the small screen. “Amy opened up [by] joking about how she hadn’t been in a room with bright lights in a year and a half,” our source said.
Their lives looked very different back then. They were married to exes Andrew Shue and Marilee Fiebig (who are now, of course, in a committed relationship with each other), and they were earning millions at a cushy daytime TV gig, hosting “GMA 3” at ABC News. That all went kaput when they blew up their marriages, and it was revealed that their relationship extended beyond the news desk.
Needless to say, it’s been “a year of hell,” as the couple so eloquently put it back in December when they launched the podcast.
On Thursday, Holmes’s daughter with Fiebig was in the room, and he started crying at the mention of children and divorce according to our source. “T.J. [also] described how he felt like everyone hated them and Amy felt like Cersei in ‘Game of Thrones,’” the source said.
And whenever Robach appeared to feel discomfort, “T.J. reached for her arm” the source revealed.
Robach was also frank about her previous marriages and “compared herself to Elizabeth Taylor because of failed marriages. T.J. said she’s half way there, and Amy said to ‘Buckle up!’” the source concluded. (Taylor, of course, was married eight times to seven men).
A rep for the couple did not comment by deadline.
